Video clip from the Charles Bukowski documentary, “Born into This”

They say youth is wasted on the young. Well, sometimes love is wasted on the young as well.

The video below is a clip from the Charles Bukowski documentary, “Born into This”, directed by John Dullaghan. 

At around 1:17 Pamela “Cupcakes” Wood remembers the mutually misunderstood nature of her relationship with Bukowski.

Pam tells me:  “The complete original sentence in the version entered at Sundance Film Festival was: “I did love him — as much as I could love any man at that time. But I considered him more of a friend…” Not sure why the film editors cut the first part… “

“I did love him — as much as I could love any man at that time”…..   I could say the same of my own youthful relationships as well.  I think it is universal. 

Charles Bukowski’s Scarlet is available from Sun Dog Press and from Amazon
